- 50 lin seeds
- 625 g oats
- 150 chopped almonds
- 50 g coconut flakes
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 125 ml rice syrup

- 1 pinch of sea salt
- 125 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 1,5 tsp vanilla extract
- 50 g dried apricots
- 50 g sultanas
- 120 g dried cherries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 150°
- Prepare two rimmed baking trays with baking paper, then set aside.
- If the different seeds are not yet cleaned, place them in a medium-sized bowl, fill it with water, swish the seeds around and let them settle for a while.
- Then pour the seed-mix into a strainer in order to pour off the water.
- If your seeds are all clean, whisk them together as well in a medium-sized bowl.
- In a second but larger bowl, place the oats, almonds, coconut flakes and cinnamon. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
- Now stir the seeds into the oat mixture.
- In a saucepan, warm the rice and maple syrup over medium heat.
- Add some salt and stir until the mixture begins to simmer. Now remove from the heat, pour in the olive oil and vanilla extract.
- Pour the olive oil syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and stir regularly until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Divide the unbaked granola between the two baking trays and bake for 15 minutes.
- Now stir the mixture, rotate the baking trays and bake another 10 minutes. Repeat the procedure and bake for another 5 to ten minutes until the granola is golden and crunchy.
- Place the warm granola into a large bowl, add the dried fruits and toss gently.
- Wait until the granola has completely cooled down until you start dividing it in jars.
- Enjoy!!!!
